First game in 23 years!
Finally played a game after a very, very, long interregnum. It was awesome. Both my fleets, played against someone who'd never played before. He used (my usual) Imperial fleet and I was Chaos. Drove his fleet straight down the middle and destroyed my escorts, one of my Murder-class cruisers, and crippled another ship by turn two, before I was able to swing round and cross his T out of range of his guns by turn 4, resulting in plasma drive overloads of both of his Lunars, Dictator class crippled, and Gothic class reduced to a burning hulk.
We played the latest Remastered v1.11 rules (streamlined so there were no boarding actions) as announced by u/horizon_fleet the other day - definitely a good few QOL improvements over what I recalled from the blue book!
Next - we've got a rematch that we're going to plan, and in the meantime I think it's time to 3D print some new quadrant bases to replace the old Citadel flight bases as well as torpedo markers and so on...
